The unique sphere on the top make it easy to spot.

The marker reads:
Our fallen Heros 1861-1865

I don't know when the marker was installed, but the church next door was formed in 1860. I would guess from the placement in the front of the cemetery that the civil war memorial was a very early addition to the cemetery.
